The "Original" May's in Berlin


The first generation May's hit the ground in Berlin this past week! After years of prayer & anticipation Matt's parents finally got the chance to stay with us in Berlin. We thoroughly enjoyed the visit & the opportunity to show our parents/in-laws our city & our home. The same weekend they were here we also had a visit from Pastor Morley, the Pastor of the Greater Grace church in London, England. The church & team were really built up by his visit and to find out how much his church in London has been keeping Berlin on their hearts & in their prayers.

There's not much in the city of Berlin that the May's did not see.
Here they are in front of a few remnants of the Berlin wall.
They were hardcore troopers and did a 6km bike ride with us into the city of Potsdam.
While the May's happened to be here so did one of our best friends Matt Grady, who was working in Berlin for a few weeks.
Saturday morning outreach with the May's is highly recommended.
Pastor Morley is a serious soul winner.
We loved the opportunity to watch him speak to young people on the streets.

The guys after church were getting pumped about their men's retreat next weekend.
